First I figured I'd delete this blog and start blank. A clean slate so to say. Then I told myself not to. Why not I might ask myself? Well I do have some old pictures in here and they are quite nice to look back at! So instead of deleting I will update ♥
What have I been up to lately? I started to study to be a nurse, I got myself moving to a new apartment, I bleached my hair to a lighter shade and I shed some pounds. Isn't that exciting?
How are you all?!
This is a newer picture of me ♥
Crappy quality but what the heck ♥
Also I'd like to inform you all that I am going to Japan on the 16th together with my best friend Beah ♥ I have been looking forward to this for a while and will update from there ♥♥♥
Today I went to the gym for the first time in AGES! I was really surprised that I could run a treadmill for 20 minutes with no stop and work all the machines for 1 hour! I know I don't have the best condition ever but at least I'm not that bad ♥
So I'm finally doing something about this. For the rest of those weeks I live I stopped my fathers fat food terror and will finally eat the food I want (and like ♥) I am so tired of traditional Swedish food that I could kill (almost) Potatoes, sausages, mincemeat and cream in any size and way.
So this is next weeks menu:
♥ Monday: Chicken breast with Quinoa ♥ Tuesday: Potato soup ♥ Wednesday: Mushroom Omelette ♥ Thursday: Chicken Satay with peanut sauce ♥ Friday: Spaghetti with beans and paprika ♥ Saturday: Minestrone soup ♥ Sunday: GI- mincemeat sauce and pasta
This sounds really good to me ♥ I always eat a good breakfast and in between the larger meals I eat something small such as fruit! A banana is awesome after working out ♥
Todays breakfast: Chrisp bread with a little butter on, a glass of orange juice, tea and an apple.
What do you like to eat for breakfast? I think I would love some yoghurt with Mango! I love mango ♥♥♥
Also I love making sweets and bake things so this is my latest project:
♥ Chocolate with pistachio nuts ♥ ♥ Time to make: 15 minutes
♥ What you need to make this wonderful thing:
100 grams of dark chocolate 1/4 cup hacked pistachio nuts 1/4 cup hacked almonds 1/4 cup Bran flakes
♥ How to make this:
1. Hack the almonds and pistachio nuts, make sure they are roughly hacked. Save about 1 tablespoon from each to use as decoration on top of.
2. Melt the chocolate together with the hacked nuts in a water-bath for some minutest in microwave and crush the bran flakes in the end of the process. Pour the melted chocolate on baking paper and sprinkle the nuts and some bran flakes on top. Let it rest like that until its hard!
ENJOY!

Another one of those wonderful movies I love. This one is Brittish and most wonderful!
Some short facts: From: 2005 Language: English Genre: Comedy, drama, music. My rating: ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
About: Charles Price may have grown up with his father in the family shoe business, but he never thought that he would take his father's place. Yet, the untimely death of his father places him in that position, only to learn that Price & Sons Shoes is failing.
While in despair at his failed attempts to save the business, Charles has a chance encounter with the flamboyant drag queen cabaret singer, Lola. Her complaints about the inadequate footwear for her work combined with one of Charles' ex-employees, Lauren, leads to a suggestion to change the product to create a desperate chance to save the business: make men's fetish footwear.
Lola is convinced to be their footwear designer and the transition begins. Now this disparate lot must struggle at this unorthodox idea while dealing both the prejudice of the staff, Lola's discomfort in the small town and the selfish manipulation of Charles' greedy fiancée who cannot see the greater good in Charles' dream.
My opinion: Once again a movie about being different, being someone who society find different. It's a cheeky but fun movie with it's own message. Fight for what you believe in, different or not. The movie is over all cute and I don't think there is part that falls flat really. The opening scene with the little boy dancing in red stilettos are so cute and so are what is following even if some parts of it really is killing me on the inside. Stop hiding, be brave. Believe in who you are and what you do.
Yes I would say it's one of those movies that makes you feel really good or at least happy after watching it.
If you love drama, humour, glitter and glamour. Than this is the movie for you! It sure is a movie for me ♥
Sorry for not giving some long update or much of pictures. I had done so many things it's insane. I'm planing for my London trip♥ already and it's a lot to do (believe it or not) on top of this packing for when I'm moving out (6th June!!)
So today I did:
♥ Packing ♥ Making a card to my penpal Anna ♥ Planing for London ♥ Eating food ♥ Buying books
Packing
As some of you know I'm moving out of my parents place at the 6th June (The Swedish national day!) to an apartment. This of course means: OH GHOD PACKING.
My room is a total mess, so bad that I will not show you it. I promise to show once things are packed. Hope you all don't mind! I really did not know that I had so much stuff to tell the truth.
I bought black plastic bags today to throw away stuff in. Oh ho. There is also things in my room that I will give away, so a give away laters!
Making a card to my penpal
ANNA IF YOU READ THIS, WELL YOUR LOSS!
There, just had to have is said. But yes. I spent some time making a card to her from a magazine, glitter, glue and wallpaper. Want to see? Here is the result of my time♥ Click to see larger!:
Front Sorry for the bad pics. I need a better camera. Look at the butterflies and clocks ♥
Back♥ Can you see the little butterfly?
Inside! This is where my letter is going to be ♥
What do you all think? I'm not sure if you can see it in the picture but the wallpaper it's in gold! It's very nice to touch too! A nice structure under your fingertips so to say!
Also, the white board by the back of the card has glitter that looks like glittery frosting ♥ I'm very proud and satisfied!
Planing for London
Me and my friend been planing some over AIM how and where to go. We are going to the London ZOO!! I love to go to the Zoo!! I can't describe the bubbly feeling inside of me when it comes to Zoo's and aquariums. Ain't animals so beautiful? ♥♥♥
We are going to spend some nice time there, going to do tourist stuff! Also I'm going to use a non-digital camera at some things but these photos are going in a scrapbook♥ But there be photos of course in the blog! I still have my own (bad) mobile camera. I hope you all are looking forward to my London report!
But oh! I'm going to roam the Oxford street and Camden alone. I hope that be fun! Anywhere you think I should go? Gal related or not!♥
Eating food
Don't we all do this every day? Anyway todays food was Sushi♥ Well Carlifona rolls to be exact! My favourite one♥ What are you favourite?
Me and my friend had dinner♥
Also for Lunch I had a grilled Sponge Bob!
Oh I love food♥ Perhaps a little too much (if that is possible!)
Buying books
A friend wrote to me on MSN and asked if I wanted books. Of course I want books, who can say no to that? So I got two gift codes to enter so I could get two free books!
Not the biggest selection of books but I ended up picking the same book twice. One for me and one for my mother. The book is about GI food. I never been a fan of diets to tell the truth and I want to stay healthy♥ and well the positive side effect on GI is that I will stay healthy and even lose weight.
Anyone tried the GI method before? Did it work out well for you? GI + working out. Sounds real good to me♥
